media not found

stephli91 — Tue, 17 Jun 2014 07:28:55 GMT

Hi,

My z1 told me my memory was getting full and to transfer photos and videos to my Sd card like I've done before. But this time, in the main album every picture that was transferred has a black background with a broken white mountain thing and when I find them in the sd card file I can see the pictures but when I click on them it says 'media not found ' I am going to throw it out the window if I can't get the pictures back as they are all of my newborn baby that I can't get back I hate technology!
Any help would be really appreciated
Thank you in advance

That hasn't worked. It is everything that is on the sd card but not every picture has done it

Yes, the phone told me to transfer them to sd card so I did but then looks like it's corrupted half of the pictures

I am not sure it will help,but you should try moving them back to the phone.

They're on there. Like I can see the photos in the list but when I click to enlarge the image it comes up black with a broken mountain picture and 'media not found' underneath

Use file commander to move them back to internal memory.

I could only figure out how to cut and paste from sd card to phone

stephli91 — Wed, 18 Jun 2014 23:07:57 GMT

No but I do have them all uploaded to Google drive if that helps can I get them back from that?

Try to move on internal storage and check how are those working.

It hasn't worked nothing is there but managed to get all pictures back as I had uploaded them to google drive I think (I thought I was backing them up) I clearly don't have a clue what I'm doing haha
